The thing I think a lot of people miss is that, if I'm not mistaken, due to his position he has to report on what he was told. It doesn't matter if it sounds insane or he doesn't have proof; his job is to tell Congress what he was told during his investigations. If he was told that it's aliens, then that's what he has to tell Congress.

I want to believe it's aliens. I think that'd be pretty cool. However, my speculation is that he was given false information by the military to try to make him sound nuts and get Congress off their backs. Either that or he wasn't given the full picture. Just because something is non-human doesn't mean it's alien in origin. It could be unmanned drones that had mice, monkeys or dogs in them to test g-forces (not sure why you couldn't use a dummy in this day and age, but that's beside the point). It could be the result of some kind of experiment to use biological matter instead of silicon and wiring. It could be aliens. There still isn't enough information for a definitive conclusion except that the US has had unidentified objects flying through controlled aerospace unimpeded.

What if they were super smart, pilot trained monkeys?

True. I wasn’t debating that, just saying if they’re going to sit back and watch us boil alive, they’re useless and not worth considering. We’ve got existential problems.

e: I see what you’re saying – maybe if we learnt we’re not the centre of the universe we’d come together. I guess I’m a cynic and I don’t think that would happen. We’d more likely enter new holy wars, with the major religions disrupting society again. Meanwhile, we’d still boil alive.

Screw that, if they have the tech to reach us I am with them. I for one welcome our new alien overlords. I can be the Dr. Breen to their Combine.

Sadly the teamsters didn't win that one. Supposedly they're discovering that their union leaders sold them out and may be about to go on strike again.

NASA statement this week opened my mind up to non-human intelligence on Earth. I started looking into when dinosaurs were really taken seriously, and it wasn't until 1800. Think about how many humans ignored that evidence. Maybe some intelligence evolved on Earth and had brains that found natural physics and chemistry more teachable than our learning in school classrooms, found ways to open dimensions and just left Earth for some place better, but still comes back to check us lower species, ha.

I prefer to maintain an open mind. So while i dont trust government not to use “aliens!” as propaganda. I do actively listen when officials are speaking under oath.

The way I understood what they said. if the military is unable to cooperate and providing more information Then they will move to try strip the military of funds going to those unaccounted projects. (Congress did mention about 60% of military budget going unaccounted)

After all the legal risks for the whistleblowers are huge and if they don’t uphold those when they cant maintain the lie then there basically saying making insane claims under oath is ok.

The phenomenon is here since the late '40s. So militarizing space now might be about the phenomenon (or at least, in part). My problem is that many people think that this whole thing is a distraction. It's not. It seems that several Congress members, from both parties, are interested in unveiling where trillions of dollars went by the military, that can't account for most of it. And by digging, they found the ufo program, and they're trying to get to the bottom of it. Instead, people see it the other way around: a monolithic evil government trying to distract us or scare us so they get more money. This is just laughable from where I sit, having experienced what I experienced, and having closely looking at what's going on with the congress.

I'm in danger.
